Descriptions
The remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes function in the storage pool manager in libvirt 1.0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption) via a large number of requests "to list all volumes for the particular pool."
La función remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes en el gestor del "pool" de almacenamiento en libvirt v1.0.5 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo del descriptor de archivo) a través de un gran número de solicitudes para mostrar todos los volúmenes de determinado "pool"
It was discovered that libvirt incorrectly handled certain storage pool requests. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause libvirt to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service.
